Advising

Noteworthy Graduate Narrative

As the chair of the Jane Engelberg Memorial Fellowship Advisory Committee (JEMF), the primary funding agency for the National Society of Genetic Counselors, I oversaw the development of the "JEMF Graduate Student Award Program," which has since become an annual national award provided to graduate students in training. Applicants submit a formal research proposal, which is reviewed and ranked by the JEMF Advisory Committee. The award supports ongoing work as part of a graduate thesis projects. During my tenure as chair, we provided awards to 36 graduate students, of which 32 recipients subsequently published thesis work. I was active advisor and mentor on a number of student thesis projects.

I am a faculty adviser for graduate students in Ohio State's Genetic Counselor Graduate Training Program, and currently mentor two graduate students. I provide classroom and clinical instruction for the training program.
